I started blogging professionally with sub domains for my first three blogs. Am still running two of them, but posts on them are frequent. They were pretty good. In fact, my first taste of a few hundred dollars were actually from these blogs. However, sub domains can only get you as far if you are really serious about making money through your blogs, let alone starting a corporate blog.
Your own Domain Name is one of the most important investment that you will have to make. Second to that is a good hosting company. Pick a good domain name that can best describe the whole intent and content of your blogging. If you can have one that exactly matches (all) the keywords of your blog’s title, that is much better. Search engines would love to index a blog like that. Besides, having the same domain name and blog title would mean easier recall of your site. Other than the fact that search engines would easily find it.
There are many domain registrars and hosting companies that you can choose from. However, as a rule of thumb, or better business common sense, pick one that will provide value to your professional blogging. Consider Domain Express.
